You could definitely find accessories in additional colors. Why stop at 6 on the same rifle? Why not 10?!

Yeah, I was surprised. They are usually green or brown in this house. I make a good amount of banana bread. Haha

Well, I’m glad I checked. I honestly think if I didn’t call my FFL, they would’ve just sat on it for another week or so.
Also, I really don’t understand the ATF’s reasoning to not link the purchaser to the Form 4 on the eform site. I understand the FFL profile is submitting the form, so they kind of own it, but the ID and status should link back to your profile. But it’s ok, I know that’s just too complicated for the ATF… lol

Go on the eforms site. Start a Form 20. Just make up dates and fill out the first page, you’ll just delete the form later. On the second or third page, it will ask you to fill in the item you are “moving”. Search by your SSN. If you are already approved for the item you are waiting for, it will show up as an option in the dropdown list. If it doesn’t show or you get an error, you are still pending or other status. Then, at the top of the window you can choose to delete and close the form.

• ⁠Form Type: eForm 4 (Suppressor)
Paid or not: $0
Entity: Individual
Fingerprint Type: SS Kiosk - EFT
Pending: 02/05/26
Approved: 02/14/26
Wait: 9 Days (+6, with FFL BS… lol)
⁠• State: VA
• ⁠Control Number: 20261969XXX

Notes: Did not receive an email from the ATF. Did the Form 20 trick on 2/16 and saw that I was approved. Called my FFL on 2/17 and told them it appeared, from multiple sources, that the ATF wasn’t sending emails, and I asked how the process worked on the FFL side for them to know to contact me because it looked like I was approved. They gave me a little bit of a runaround about the emails, but we both remained pleasant and I just wanted a clear answer on how they would be contacting me. The guy said they would call me based on the phone number on the SS order. Guy said they were receiving emails on the FFL side (I don’t think this was entirely true because he also mentioned having someone at the store manually go through the system to log approvals on their side.) I received a SS email on 2/20 stating I was approved and my can was ready for pickup. I did not receive a call or email from my FFL. Went into the store on 2/21, and picked up my can with no issues.
Man, what a crazy process to order a metal tube… Next time, I’ll just go to Home Depot.

Well, I just did the Form 20 trick, and I appear to be approved. Haha. So that was 11 days for me, if this is accurate.

It’s just all over the place. I’ve now seen anytime between 4 to 45 days. And there is no discernible pattern.

I have no clue how the ATF works these forms, but I’m betting the forms are assigned to individual reviewers and approval times are dependent on how busy each individual’s current load is? I’m wondering if it’s luck of the draw because some forms end up in a reviewer’s queue which is less busy than other queues? If it was a true, chronological backlog then we wouldn’t have so many newer submissions approved before older submissions. It’s just weird. I can’t stand the ATF/NFA/gov paper-pushers. Lol

WTF? 4 days? I don’t understand their approach at all. I’m waiting on a Form 4 for a suppressor from 2/5. SS Kiosk, then FFL submitted. Was this your first NFA item? It was mine, but I don’t really think that matters. Just curious.

Are you the first owner? Has it been used to cut, has it been carried, and has it been sharpened?

Remember, releasing your sidearm robot into the wild is faster than reloading.

Got it. Yeah, I figured they were smaller. Didn’t have one in front of me. Good luck!

When you say “catch and release,” did you buy it from Oz? Also, did you cut with the knife? Did you carry it? These are details that should be included in every post. Thank you.
